Ray Knight analyzed Hendricks in the post game MASN show. He throws 85 mph, mostly pitches outside and the ball comes in low and sinks. Ray demonstrated that you counter this by stepping closer to the plate and more towards the front of the plate, so you swing early while the ball is still up, and won't be so far outside. (Ryan Zimmerman, I'm looking at you, Mister 0 for 4. Zim gave a nice post-game compliment to Hendricks, since he was clueless about how to beat him.)
With the assistant batting coarch Jacques-Post-Your-Ex-Nude-Pic suspended, just put Ray Knight in the dugout temporarily. i'd rather win than have zero game plan and just lose and lose.

I guess the entire league isn't able to figure out this simple fix given Kendricks success. Sigh....
